Once the desired design is selected, patterns from the design are cut from heavy paper or cardboard. Up to 80 different sizes are possible from one pattern. The pieces of denim are then cut with high speed cutting machines from stacks 100 layers thick. Excluding rivets, buttons, and zippers, a pair of blue jeans contains about ten different pieces, from the pockets to the leg panels to the waistband and belt loops.
The pieces of denim are ready to be sewn at this point. Sewing is done in an assembly line fashion, with rows of industrial human-operated sewing machines. Each sewer is assigned a specific function, such as making only back pockets. First, the various pockets and belt loops are assembled. Next, one sewer attaches the pockets to the leg seams, another then sews the leg seams together, and still another attaches the waist-band. Once the waist band is secure, the belt loops may be stitched on and the buttons attached. If the jeans include a zipper, it is then sewn into place, and the pants are hemmed. Finally, the rivets are placed in the appropriate places and the maker's label is sewn on last.
Some jeans are prewashed and/or stone-washed to alter the appearance or texture of the finished jeans. Prewashing involves washing the jeans in industrial detergent for a short time to soften the denim. Stone-washing also means washing the jeans, but pumice is added to the load, resulting in a faded appearance. Small stones (less than one inch [one centimeter] in diameter) produce an even abrasion, while large stones (about four inches [10 centimeters] in diameter) highlight the seams and pockets and produce a more uneven appearance.

The word dungarees, to identify heavy cotton pants such as overalls
can be traced to a thick cotton country-made cloth, Dongari Kapar, which was
sold in the quarter contiguous to the Dongari Killa, the fort of what was then
known as The word entered English with
just this meaning in 1696 (OED). Dongri Fort was rebuilt in 1769 as Fort
George, Bombay, where the first cotton mill was established in 1854. Dyed in
indigo, the traditional cloth was used by Portuguese sailors and cut wide so
that the legs could be swiftly rolled up when necessary. Thus, dungarees have a
separate history.

Dry or raw denim, as opposed to washed denim, is a denim fabric
that is not washed after being dyed during its production. Over time, denim
will generally fade, which is often considered desirable.

Most denim is washed after being crafted into an article of
clothing in order to make it softer and to eliminate any shrinkage which could
cause an item to not fit after the owner washes it. In addition to being
washed, non-dry denim is sometimes artificially "distressed" to
achieve a worn-in look.

Much of the appeal of dry denim lies in the fact that with
time the fabric will fade in a manner similar to factory distressed denim. With
dry denim, however, such fading is affected by the body of the person who wears
the jeans and the activities of their daily life. This creates what many
enthusiasts feel to be a more natural, unique look than pre-distressed denim.

To facilitate the natural distressing process, some wearers
of dry denim will often abstain from washing their jeans for more than six
months, though it is not a necessity for fading.

Selvage denim (also called selvedge denim) is a type of
denim which forms a clean natural edge that does not unravel. It is commonly
presented in the unwashed or raw state. Typically, the selvage edges will be
located along the outseam of the pants, making it visible when cuffs are worn.
Although selvage denim is not completely synonymous with unwashed denim, the
presence of selvage typically implies that the denim used is a higher quality.

The word "selvage" comes from the phrase
"self-edge", the natural edge of a roll of fabric. In this case, denim
made on old-style shuttle looms. These looms weave fabric with one continuous
cross thread (the weft) that is passed back and forth all the way down the
length of the bolt. As the weft loops back into the edge of the denim it
creates this “self-edge” or Selvage. Selvage is desirable because the edge
can’t fray like lower grade denims that have separate wefts which leave an open
edge that must be stitched. Shuttle looming is a more time-consuming weaving
process that produces denim of a tighter weave resulting in a heavier weight
fabric that lasts.

Shuttle looms weave a more narrow piece of fabric, and thus
a longer piece of fabric is required to make a pair of jeans (approximately 3
yards). To maximize yield, traditional jean makers use the fabric all the way
to the selvage edge. When the cuff is turned up the two selvage edges, where
the denim is sewn together, can be seen. The selvage edge is usually stiched
with colored thread: green, white, brown, yellow, and red (red is the most
common). Fabric mills used these colors to differentiate between fabrics. Most
selvage jeans today are dyed with synthetic indigo, but natural is available in smaller niche denim labels.
Loop dying machines feed a rope of cotton yarn through vats of indigo dye and
then back out. The dye is allowed to oxidize before the next dip. Multiple dips
create a deep dark indigo blue.

In response to increased demand for jeans in the 1950's,
American denim manufacturers replaced the old shuttle style looms with modern
projectile looms. The new looms produced fabric faster and wider (60-inches or
wider), yet lighter and less durable. Synthetic dyeing techniques along with
post-dye treatments were introduced to control shrink and twist.

The completed pair of blue jeans is I0 then pressed. They are placed into a large pressing machine that steam irons the entire garment at once in about a minute. A size tag is punched into the material and the jeans are folded, stacked, and placed in boxes according to style, color, and size before being sent to the warehouse for storage. When the jeans are selected to be sent to a store, they are put in large shipping cartons and sent on freight trains or trucks.
Byproducts of denim manufacture include organic pollutants, such as starch and dye, which can be treated through biological methods. These organic wastes may not be dumped into streams or lakes because of their high biochemical oxygen demand. To decompose, such waste materials utilize so much oxygen that the lifeforms in the body of water would be denied the oxygen necessary for survival.Slim Fit Jeans For Men Free Images Photos Pictures Pics 2013
